The more critical the mont, the less you can act impulsively.
I’m telling you this now only so you can clear your mind before eting Walter Hansen.
Don’t show too much hostility, but also don’t think you owe him anything for turning him down back then.
Mom and Dad have been gone for so long. Since we know they were murdered, we must avenge them.
But how we go about revenge needs thorough planning.
If we alert the enemy, the true culprit we’ve suspected will only slip away, do you get it?"
Faye Townsend stepped forward and hugged him, her heart heavy with sorrow that she couldn’t suppress.
But she knew Hunter Warren was right.
Revenge isn’t sothing achieved in a single day.
She needed justice, but she also needed to co out of it unhard.
"I feel terrible, our Townsend Family really brought this upon itself.
No wonder my brother was so furious; I feel like I’m about to lose my mind too.
Hunter, I’m not weak, but I’m utterly falling apart right now."
Hunter Warren held her tightly in his arms, his hand stroking the back of her head.
"I’m here. Don’t feel this way. No matter what happens, I’ll always be by your side."
They were in a restaurant, and the curious gazes of the people around them began to land on them.
Even Clara, not far away, seed a bit perplexed.
Sean Lennox raised an eyebrow, "Second Master and his wife have such a good relationship. It’s enviable."
Clara looked at Faye’s sorrowful appearance, and a trace of unease stirred in her heart too.
"Clara, eat. Matters between a married couple aren’t sothing outsiders can ddle in," Sean Lennox said as he glanced over at them while scooping food onto Clara’s plate.
If it was Second Master’s matter, he wouldn’t interfere.
Second Master had always been prudent. If he needed help, he’d ask for it.
Clara nodded and turned back to sip her cherry juice.
"Have you been going to the hospital for rehabilitation lately?"
Clara shook her head, "Not recently. My doctor has been coming to Uncle Oliver’s house every day to do two hours of treatnt with ."
"Hm, looks like I’ll need to buy so rehabilitation equipnt then. That way you can do it at ho from now on."
Clara blinked and looked at him, "Your house?"
"It’ll beco ours soday."
Clara raised a finger to cover her nose and laughed quietly.
This man was truly...
Why did he think she’d definitely marry him?
"What if I end up disabled?"
"That wouldn’t matter. Any woman I choose, no matter what happens to her, I’ll still love her."
Love? How many years had it been since soone said that word to her?
Once, Victor Jude had acted like a lunatic, chasing her around every day, relentlessly trying to persuade her to leave Uncle Oliver.
His most frequent phrase was, ’Nobody in this world will ever love you more than I do.’
Sean Lennox now said he loved her too, but if one day an unavoidable situation arose, wouldn’t he leave her all the sa?
"Do you really believe in love? To , love might be the most unreliable thing in this world."
"That’s because you haven’t found the right person. I believe in love, and I believe you’re the one I’ve been waiting for."
Clara thought of herself as pretty composed, but the man before her seed to turn romantic words into casual conversation with ease.
She was truly starting to feel overwheld.
She lowered her eyes, chuckling silently.
Seeing her gentle smile, Sean Lennox curled up the edge of his lips too.
"Do your parents know about ?"
"My family has always been liberal and values marital freedom."
Wasn’t it supposed to be about love? Clara bit her lip, "My mom passed away, and as for my dad... I don’t even know who he is. I’ve never seen him since I was little.
After my mom died, I was raised by Oliver Turner. I always called him Uncle.
Hm... Right now I work at BlueHorizon Group. Is there anything else you want to know?"
Sean Lennox shook his head, smiling.
"What... What are you laughing at?"
Sean Lennox leaned forward slightly, "I’m laughing because you’re willing to accept ."
"I..." When had she said she was accepting him?
"When you walked in earlier, your expression was stern, like you wouldn’t share anything personal with . Seeing this change in you makes happy."
Watching Clara’s embarrassed smile, he grinned and took another step forward, "If you want to leave the past behind and start anew, I can be your stepping stone. So, do you have ti tomorrow?"
Clara looked at him, her heart wavering.
"If you have ti tomorrow, let’s get married."
"Huh?" Clara froze for a mont.
"You’ve spent your life going crazy for others, but have you ever gone crazy for yourself?
Don’t you want to do sothing... that would shock everyone around you?"
